The allergenic properties of children’s toys, particularly scented toys, are a major concern. Consequently regulations regarding the chemical safety of toys have been passed. In this application note from FRITSCH a method for the preparation of samples from toys for allergenic testing is described. The Vibratory Micro Mill PULVERISETTE 0 equipped with a cryo box, was used to efficiently produce a powder and retain scents.
